Please show me your bathroom wall panels!

I was recommended to use bathroom wall panels by a damp surveyor, as he reckons they're warmer than tiles on a v. cold and damp external wall, which should help with the condensation.

I'm currently getting tradesmen round to quote for refurbing my bathroom and most of them haven't been very keen to use them. It's now making me doubt having them (although I know the builders might just be talking them down because they can't cream as much off the top as they can for a tiler), so please show me your bathroom wall panels and share your experience!

ps. I know someone will say there have been similar threads on this before, but I'd specifically like to see pics, especially if you used them from floor to ceiling on all your walls.

We love ours as they always look clean and fresh and no unsightly grout staining.

Watching with interest as I'm trying to choose between panels and tiling at the moment.

We were recommended to use them by the bathroom fitter and have them fitted full length on all external walls and round bath.

Have you had them installed yet? So interesting that some bathroom fitters are recommending them while others are so reluctant!

Show me too please! I really can’t decide about them. I think there is definitely a huge disparity between the different brands and spec of panels and without physically seeing them in situ it’s hard to tell whether they will look good or not.

everytime I look I end up completely overwhelmed with the options and revert back to tiles because I know where I am with tiles. But the lure of convenient cleaning does appeal…..

They’re the pic above. It’s small en-suite and a funny shape but I think they bring it all together.
